February 5, 20196 yr Congratulations blacksquare! - but also, this wasn't his first attempt at this, dandy*! I saw his name in the list for Pete's contest :P
February 5, 20196 yr My silver coming first and my gold second, what an absolutely tremendous top two :wub: congrats blacksquare on such a convincing victory!
February 5, 20196 yr Author Hopefully this will have worked okay but here's a link to the excel document: https://www.dropbox.com/s/xupbgkakowl7l73/U...sults.xlsx?dl=0 You can remind yourself of your votes!!! :lol:
February 5, 20196 yr Always the case that I run into a complete monster whenever I finally have that winning chance isn't it? :'( Not that I can begrudge that winner at all, as my votes show, a beautiful song and one I always thought would be a likely winner, congrats blacksquare! And I can't (although after a billion times, it's becoming a bit harder :P) complain at 2nd either, I had a good feeling about this one, I s'pose I got lucky I was in a very dance-heavy UP but great to see so many liked it, I would highly recommend his album VOYAGER to those who enjoyed this, so many wonderful bleeps and bloops *. Very pleased to see Plastician and particularly Jade Cicada do so well, actually all my top 4 finished in the top 10 which is wonderful. Thanks for getting these out there eventually Dandy!

February 5, 20196 yr I already dripfed my entire votes throughout the thread I think but here they are all in one place anyway :magic: 20 65daysofstatic - Unmake The Wild Light 15 Cari Cari - Mapache 12 Otha - One Of The Girls 10 Blamma! Blamma! - Carry Me Home 8 Plastician - Japan 7 Victoriya - In The End 6 Kardajala Kirridarra - Ngurra (Rain Song) 5 Just A Band - Huff + Puff 4 Silver Apples - Oscillations 3 Nick Hakim - Vincent Tyler 2 Monkey Safari - Shelter 1 The Holy - Ramses The Evil Brother
February 5, 20196 yr I'd forgotten I'd rated One of the Girls so high to be honest! It is an amazing song though and a worthy winner, I know the video isn't official but I feel like that adds so much to the song as well. Congrats blacksquare!
February 5, 20196 yr Delighted with 5th on my debut in this contest! Thanks to all those who voted for Japan. Great to see my top 3 all finish in the top 6 but a shame I wasn't a fan of the winning song & gave my 20 to 2nd place - at least it wasn't even close in the end. Congrats to blacksquare!
February 5, 20196 yr TEN • 101 points Estrons • Lilac • RabbitFurCoat So it's RFC who falls out first within the top 10 but this is still yet another very good result for him after picking up a couple of sets of max points along the way. Definitely one of the better tracks entered this time around, it's great to see something with louder guitars at the fore and a slightly more punk(ish) (very ish) vibe doing so well in this. I've been meaning to check more of the band's stuff out but haven't quite got around to it as yet, if you do read this let us know where to go next... Received: GOLD from coi & Iz Bronze from DalekTurret32 & PeteFromLeeds Really pleased with a top 10 finish and to get some medal placings. This contest opened just after their album was released and I'd seen them live and I was utterly obsessed. Body and Make a Man are tracks of a similar style, but I think their current single Strangers has grown to be my favourite of theirs: Edited February 5, 20196 yr by RabbitFurCoat

February 5, 20196 yr Ended up with a pretty good winner in the end! Congrats blacksquare! Also commiserations to Chez, surely he’s overdue a win after being the first to lose so many times? Only ended up voting for four of the top 10 but at least they were the top 4! Thanks for doing this dandy, even though we lost out on the vote reveal the end result turned out nice in the end.
February 5, 20196 yr One of the Girls is a great winner, and the only reason it wasn't in my top 3 as it was one of the 3 (I think) songs I already knew so had marked it down. I enjoyed it quite a lot last year but if that was capable of 292 points then who knows how much the follow-up single to it would've got. My favourite track of the last couple of months. K0T4Gekz7Zo Edit: If I wasn't banned from the current contest I'd have entered this into BJSC, I now suspect I'll be banned from sending it next time but for a different reason!

'I'm on Top' was on heavy rotation towards the end of last year. She's wonderful.
February 5, 20196 yr Thank you for the win! I'm genuinely and pleasantly surprised. It was one of my favourites from 2018 so I'm glad it was so well received here too. Do I have the honour of hosting the next one? To those mentioning BJSC... I'm not actually sure what that is. 👀
February 5, 20196 yr Author Thank you for the win! I'm genuinely and pleasantly surprised. It was one of my favourites from 2018 so I'm glad it was so well received here too. Do I have the honour of hosting the next one? To those mentioning BJSC... I'm not actually sure what that is. �� You do indeed get to host the next one. It's due to start next week with results in about August. As for BJSC - it's the sites song contest (Buzzjack Song Contest)... just here: http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/Buzzjack-So...ntest-f134.html You do have to pretend to be a country though. It's not actually as weird and messed up as it sounds.
February 5, 20196 yr Also commiserations to Chez, surely he’s overdue a win after being the first to lose so many times? He has won the Pop Forum Song Contest and two BJSC spinoffs now, the 2nd place curse is just still going strong in the main BJSC, UP, Nuggets and Club Bizarre :D
February 5, 20196 yr Author He has won the Pop Forum Song Contest and two BJSC spinoffs now, the 2nd place curse is just still going strong in the main BJSC, UP, Nuggets and Club Bizarre :D OH! In that case PAH, I don't feel anywhere near as sorry for him now.
